I don't really remember. I found out about Yana Toboso (the creator) because of her first manga, Rust Blaster, and then later found Kuroshitsuji....I think someone had it linked to the manga updates page for it on their site.

When my friend showed me Sebastien in the scanned magazine.I was like"who's the hottie?" and then later i start reading the manga and fell in love with it ! The art,the character,the story and that they don't have Japanese name .. Waah, i just can't imagine how the animated series will start.
